But if Dave is going to face consequences for his death scam, it wont be this week.

Hes even able to start a new relationship with someone who seems to want the same things as him.

Of course, the bigger Dave gets, the harder hell fall.

Still, seeing the show just having fun for a while can be nice.

The greaterDaves range of tones, the better it lands, both comedically and dramatically.

He sleeps the rest of the day and night away, leaving Robyn on her own.

What Dave didnt mention to Robyn until today is that his birthday also happens to be this week.

They need someone to get Dave to his surprise party on the beach tomorrow evening.

It doesnt sound difficult in theory.

Its not that he doesnt knowhow; he can get by if absolutely necessary.

Its more that he occupies some middle ground.

But Robyn takes the news surprisingly well.

The two of them still dontreallyknow each other that well.

Its fun enough, and Im sure its heading somewhere dramatic.

Their chemistry during a business meeting feels real and intense, sustained with long silences and stares.

But Mikes aborted attempt at role-playing actually leads to a healthy conversation about his and Avas kinks.

By playing out a consensual non-consent fantasy, they can both get what they arent finding elsewhere in life.

Who cares if the dirty talk is cringey when they get all they need from the power dynamic?

But despite just showing up now, theres already something both funny and oddly natural about her and Mike.

Really, their moment of honest dialogue isnt much different from Dave and Robyns own truth-spilling conversation.

But it feels more real: more complicated and less final-scene-of-a-sitcom-episode.

The most vulnerable and human moment of the episode has nothing to do with him.

Dick Jokes

GaTa apparently hasnt masturbated in 20 years.

Ally puts her name in Robyns phone as Mike Triangle.

Curious to see how Mike wrestles with his complicated dad issues in the coming weeks.

When Mike arrives, Ava is on the phone for work: I dont get these people.

Every time Jon Hamms dick print bulges in his pants when hes walking around Brooklyn is not a story.

He wears khakis; he walks around a lot.

To see Mike Santino play a similar but more genuinely threatening character, check outBeef.

Benny Blanco arguing with Daves mom is priceless.

I didnt expect there to be a fucking dead seal.

Ive never even seen a real seal!

When Robyn mentions their beach plans, Dave points out, Plans, like, change.

Blockbuster had plans to not have the streaming era exist.
